These festive treats are super simple to make and really delicious. They make perfect gifts or a great addition to a holiday party.
Supplies:
- 6 Rice Krispie cereal
- 1 16 oz. bag mini marshmallows (Melt 7 cups and add the rest at the end).
- 1 cup crushed candy canes
- mini candy canes
- 5 Tbsp butter
Steps:
First you are going to make rice Krispie treats as usual but you will extra butter and marshmallow, because...yum!
- Start by melting 5 Tbsp. of butter in a pan on medium heat.

- Add 7 cups of mini marshmallows to the pan and stir until they have melted.

- Once melted, you will want to work quickly. Remove the pan from heat and add in the 6 cups of rice cereal and stir until the cereal is well coated.

- Let it sit a minute or so until it has cooled a bit and add in the rest of the mini marshmallows and stir until well combined. You want these to be whole and not melt in.

- Sprinkle 1/4 - 1/2 cup crushed candy canes into the mixture and stir until well combined.

- Pour the mixture into a greased pan (or lined with parchment paper). I used a square 8x8 so that the treats are nice and thick.

- Cover with a piece of plastic and press down so that the treats are even and compacted. If you have a pan of the same size you can use that to press the treats into the pan.
- Evenly place 6 mini candy canes on top of the treats and press down slightly.

- Now sprinkle the rest of the crushed candy canes on top and press down lightly.

- Place in the fridge to cool. Once cooled, remove from the pan and cut into rectangles. If giving as a gift you may want to wrap each treat in plastic wrap.

Enjoy!
